I love Bordeaux's, but I have a tough time finding them under 25 to drink consistently.

Chianti is maybe the best red for the buck.
Feb 11, 2019, 5:44 PM

In total wines they have a ton of good Tuscan wines, and Chianti's under $20. I buy wine 2 times a year. Usually around 10 bottles at a time. Always under $200. If I can find one or two good wines under $15, I might splurge on $30 bottle of cab. Wife loves Chardonnay, which I only drink with fish, or maybe chicken if it's "buttery" enough.
All other wines are weak/sweet/hangover types, or like Burgundy wines, too spensive.

I like my wine fortified.

Yeah, I have zero palate for wine either. One glass can give me a headache, and makes me a much meaner drunk if I lose track of intake. I generally tend to stay away from it altogether.

CLOS DE L'ORATORIE. Grand Cru Classe 2014 is 40 bucks
CHATEAU FOURCAS DUPRE'
Listrac-Medoc 2016 Bordeaux is 20 bucks which is more on the lines of what I want to spend. I can drink a couple of bottles no prob and just want t keep things reasonable.
I will try both though. Thanks

It would be interesting to see if I would still enjoy those. I may actually try one again one day for the novelty.

For a $20 bet I funneled an entire bottle of Snow Creek Berry once in Johnstone. It may still be too soon for me to taste that again.

Daily drankin wine limit would be at the $10 and under at the local Safeway. Gettin to that $25 range is a special occasion.
Gimme some of that Rex Goliath Cabernet for $6.99, $4.99 with a Safeway Club discount.
